View	Description	Examples of upstream and downstream Snaps
Input	This Snap has precisely one document input view.	Mapper
Output	This Snap has, at most, one document output view.	Mapper SnapLogic Delete
Error	Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter when running the pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab. The available options are: Stop Pipeline Execution Stops the current pipeline execution when an error occurs. Discard Error Data and Continue Ignores the error, discards that record, and continues with the remaining records. Route Error Data to Error View Routes the error data to an error view without stopping the Snap execution. Learn more about Error handling in Pipelines.

Field / Field set	Type	Description
Label	String	Required. Specify a unique name for the Snap. Modify this to be more appropriate, especially if more than one of the same Snaps is in the pipeline. Default value: SnapLogic Create Example: SnapLogic Create1
Asset type	String	Required. The type of Asset to operate on. Options available include: TASK ACCOUNT PIPELINE PROJECT SNAPLEX FLOWS Default value: ACCOUNT Example: TASK Note: If the org is configured for Enhanced Account Encryption, the information you use to create an account is automatically encrypted. PROJECT is used for both projects and Project Spaces.
Asset path	String/Expression	Required. Specify the absolute path for the asset in the following format: `<org>/<project_space>/<project>/<asset>` Default value: N/A Example: /myorg/Engineering/Status/LatestDefects
Snap execution	Dropdown list	Select one of the three modes in which the Snap executes. Available options are: Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap and generates a data preview during pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during pipeline runtime. Execute only: Performs full execution of the Snap during pipeline execution without generating preview data. Disabled: Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it. Default value: Execute only Example: Validate & Execute
